    Thought I'd suggest some freeware to everyone. I'm always trying to delete random rubbish off my comuter and when doing this I hate having to hover over folders (or right click etc) to see how large they are. This morning it was annoying me so much I did some googling and I found a program called folder size

    You turn it on in explorer and turn off the normal 'size' detail and it will then tell you folder sizes, along with the normal size of files... very helpful IMHO

    hmm not sure whether i like explorerxp - seems a little cluttered - although as it's got tabs I'll give it a go - thanks. Though what the idea of using ctrl+n for a new tab was i have no idea - it should be tttttttt
